I like the trip now in early winter as easier on tires/engine cooling with winter temps. We joked about 5...

You have to be careful with a locker only on the rear axle only....... I had a Jeep pickup truck with limited slip rear end and in snow and mud the rear would lock and over power the front end traction and push the front end . You have to be quick on the clutch or neutral shifter or you will...
